A true expert in Chicago land use and zoning

We engaged Edward Kus from Taft to help our small business navigate a complex zoning variance for a property expansion in the West Loop. With 47 years of experience, his deep knowledge of municipal law was immediately apparent. He expertly guided us through the city's approval process, anticipating every board's concerns. His recognition in Best Lawyers for Land Use and Zoning Law is well-deserved. The outcome was perfect for our needs. While his billing is transparent and fair for his expertise, communication response times could occasionally be a bit slower during busy periods. Overall, we highly recommend him for any Chicago land use matter.
